...sorry to see Kinsley say President George W. Bush's motives for invading Iraq were "to liberate a country from a dictator, perhaps to find and destroy some dangerous weapons."

This symbiosis will continue long after the documentary airs, the blog wars die out and the godless TV networks air their Easter specials, which is probably just as well for everyone, including James Cameron.
